2748 Did the Mediocre Celestial Fire Speak?
The two people who had emerged from the room were none other than Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er.‘The Imperial family of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom will be selecting young powerhouses to participate in the Wasteland Grand Contest in ten days… Breaking through and becoming a Great Overarching Golden Celestial won’t change the result, but it’s still beneficial to us.’ Duan Ling Tian had a bright smile on his face. Even if he did not break through, no one would be his opponent in the selection. Not even the Violet Sun Golden Celestial from the Grand Prestige Mansion, who was younger than 100 years old, was his opponent even if he did not become a Great Overarching Golden Celestial.
‘The reason I broke through so quickly is all thanks to the Great Overarching Pill, Huan’er’s Divine Crystal, and the thirteenth prince’s earth-grade cultivation method, the Heavenly Firmament Technique!’ After mastering the earth-grade cultivation method, the Heavenly Firmament Technique, Duan Ling Tian realized the huge difference between an earth-grade cultivation method and a yellow-grade cultivation method.
Duan Ling Tian looked at Huan’er and asked, “Huan’er, with your talent, the help of the Divine Crystal, and the pill’s medicinal efficacy in your body, why didn’t you break through to the next stage?”
Huan’er was no less talented than Duan Ling Tian. Coupled with the Divine Crystal and the medicinal efficacy of the pill her mother had left her, logically speaking, her cultivation speed would not be slow. However, Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials were different from Great Overarching Golden Celestials after all. It was normal that the cultivation speed of an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial was slower.
“Brother Ling Tian, I had a breakthrough before you… I broke through three months ago,” Huan’er said with a smile. When she smiled, it seemed as though 100 flowers were blooming at the same time.
Duan Ling Tian was captivated by her smile. When he regained his senses, his eyes brightened as he asked, “You broke through three months ago? So you’re an earth-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial now?”
“Yes.” Huan’er nodded.

“I see… Although you didn’t cultivate for many years before this, you were still a profound-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. It’s normal that you would have a breakthrough after cultivating for almost a year.” He thought her progress was normal since she was someone who became an Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial before she even turned 100 years old.
“Brother Ling Tian… There are still ten days left before the selection day. Are you going to continue to cultivate during these ten days?” Huan’er asked softly as she looked at Duan Ling Tian with her beautiful eyes.
“What’s the matter? Huan’er, are you bored? Want to go for a walk?” Duan Ling Tian asked with a smile. When he saw the embarrassed expression on her face, he added, “Huan’er, I’ll accompany you for a walk. It doesn’t matter if we forgo cultivation during these ten days.”
Huan’er’s eyes brightened immediately as soon as she heard Duan Ling Tian’s words.
When Duan Ling Tian left, he did not inform Long Fei Yun like he usually did. He knew Long Fei Yun would definitely insist on following them.
Even then, the pair was still discovered by Qiu Ling, Long Fei Yun’s subordinate who was a heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial. He immediately informed Long Fei Yun about the pair’s departure.
Long Fei Yun said solemnly, “Since Brother Duan didn’t come and see me, it means he didn’t want me to go with them. Qiu Ling, secretly follow and protect them. Don’t let any harm come to them!” He would not let any harm come to Duan Ling Tian. After all, Duan Ling Tian would help him win the selection and also help pave his way to the throne by joining the Martial Dragon Celestial Sect.
“As you command,” Qiu Ling replied before he left to follow Duan Ling Tian and Huan’er.
…
“Brother Ling Tian… Qiu Ling is following us.” Huan’er discovered Qiu Ling as soon as he appeared, and she did not hesitate to inform Duan Ling Tian immediately.
“Huan’er, it seems like after you became an earth-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial, your perception has also improved a lot. You discovered Qiu Ling so quickly,” Duan Ling Tian said with a smile. Although he could not sense Qiu Ling, he knew Qiu Ling would definitely be alerted when they left the thirteenth prince’s residence. After all, Qiu Ling was a heaven-rank Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial! It was not difficult to guess that Qiu Ling would inform Long Fei Yun, and in turn, Long Fei Yun would order Qiu Ling to secretly protect them. Therefore, he was not surprised at all when Huan’er told him about her discovery.
Huan’er asked, “Brother Ling Tian, should we ask him to return?” Although she did not know much about romance, she instinctively wanted to be alone with Duan Ling Tian. She did not like having another person intruding on her time alone with Duan Ling Tian.
“No need for that.” Duan Ling Tian was, naturally, not privy to Huan’er’s thoughts. He shook his head. “Let him follow us if he wants to follow us. We’ll just pretend we’re unaware of it.”
“Okay.” Huan’er nodded obediently.
As they walked on the streets in the capital of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom, Duan Ling Tian heard many rumors that were circulating in the capital. He, naturally, found out about how the Seventh Prince of the Soaring Dragon Celestial Kingdom had recruited a Violet Sun Golden Celestial younger than 100 years old from the Grand Prestige Mansion.
‘Isn’t the young Violet Sun Golden Celestial a close relative of the King of Grand Prestige Mansion? Moreover, it seems like the Mansion spared no effort in nurturing and cultivating him. It’s said that he has deep ties with the Grand Prestige Mansion, and he’s not an ingrate. Why did he betray the Grand Prestige Mansion?’ Duan Ling Tian was surprised and confused when he heard this news. He had heard a little about the young Violet Sun Golden Celestial before this. However, as he continued listening to the discussions around him, he was finally enlightened. ‘As it turns out, it was the Grand Prestige Mansion who sent that person to the seventh prince… If he represents the seventh prince and wins the selection, the seventh prince would be rewarded with a Duke Grade Celestial Weapon. Most importantly, it would make the path to the throne smoother for the seventh prince. If the seventh prince becomes the emperor, the Grand Prestige Mansion would benefit greatly.”
As Duan Ling Tian accompanied Huan’er while she was shopping, he suddenly recalled something. ‘That’s right… Now that I’ve become a Great Overarching Golden Celestial, I should be able to completely draw out the Celestial Fire from the defective metal piece, right?’ He was still unaware that the gray flame in his body that he had mistakenly taken for a Celestial Fire was actually a Chaos Divine Flame.
Duan Ling Tian looked inside and discovered the gray flame had, indeed, completely left the defective metal piece. Just as he had speculated, after he became a Great Overarching Golden Celestial, he could completely draw the gray flame out of the defective metal piece.
‘I now have full control of the Celestial Fire in my body. It should be a mediocre Celestial Fire now, right?’ With this thought in mind, Duan Ling Tian raised his hand, and a gray flame appeared on his fingertip briefly. Although it was just a short moment, he was quite certain it was now a mediocre Celestial Fire. Naturally, to be 100% certain, he would need to try and refine a mediocre Celestial Pill. After all, only a mediocre Celestial Fire would be able to refine a mediocre Celestial Pill. Alas, this was not the time to refine Celestial Pills.
Duan Ling Tian regained his senses and continued shopping with Huan’er. Although he could not wait to refine the pills, he suppressed his eagerness. He was not in a hurry, and Huan’er seemed to be having fun so he did not want to interrupt her.
…
Time continued to pass. Duan Ling Tian had accompanied Huan’er the entire day. At this moment, the pair walked out of a restaurant after dinner to return to Long Fei Yun’s residence in the Imperial palace.
“Huh?” Duan Ling Tian suddenly felt the hair on his arms standing on their ends. Soon after, he discovered the gray flame in his body seemed to be agitated even though he was not doing anything. He instinctively tried to control the gray flame, or the Chaos Divine Flame.
All of a sudden, the Chaos Divine Flame suddenly surged out and shot toward a direction at the other end of the street at the entrance of the restaurant.
Duan Ling Tian, naturally, turned around to look. He saw an old man dressed in black robes.
The old man was thin, and his eyes shone with vigor. The black robe he wore was not an ordinary robe. Flames were embroidered on the black robe. The flames formed the word ‘Yang’. It was the Yang Celestial Master’s Robe issued by the Alliance of Celestial Masters that consisted of mediocre Celestial Alchemists and Weapon Craftsmen. It was obvious the man was either a mediocre Celestial Alchemist or a mediocre Celestial Weapon Craftsman.
At this moment, a voice spoke from Duan Ling Tian’s body. “Profound Divine Metal… The other party also has a second form Chaos Divine Fire. Help me devour it! I’ll be able to enter the third form after this. In the future, if we encounter a profound Divine Metal in the second form, I’ll also help you devour it.”
Duan Ling Tian was thoroughly shocked! He could vaguely sense that the voice belonged to the gray flame that he thought was a mediocre Celestial Fire.
